Steady trickle of cars late at night on a Saturday. Lots are local or going to Luxemburg. For getting to Liege you have to really ask them where they are going to find someone driving past Liege to let you out in the subburbs. Traffic to Paris, for example, is good.rating: 3/5, wait: 60 min 💬, ride: 42 km ←

A bit long to get here but simple (just RER to Bussy St George and just walk, better than going to Vémars).A kind worker took us (we were 2) to the station near the end.
We found an old couple who took us to Reims, good people.
Good place to go east, I also want to try if by I can go to Brussel easier from Paris by starting here compared to Vémars maybe.

Nickel pour aller à Paris, j’ai été prise littéralement au bout de la troisième voiturePar contre un peu dangereux d’aller directement au péage, faut marcher pendant une vingtaine de mètres au milieu de deux arrivées de voitures
La prochaine fois je m’arrêterais au fond poind avant

I think this is technically a good spot but I was unlucky here twice.First time I got dropped off at the Paris Tille airport because the guy did not want me to hitchhike in the dark and asked me to spend the night in the airport. Well, the airport closed for the night and I had to take bus back to Paris to not be on the streets for the freezing night!
The other day I got soaking wet with no ride in two hours and gave up eventually, took a BlaBlaCar for the first big service station on the motorway.

We got here late at night, spent the night in a tent at the end of the trucker station (not really a recommendation in november as it was fucking cold) next morning we arrived back at the station at 8:30. Then we waited for quite a while. Although there were a lot of cars most went to Bordeaux and we were looking for a ride to paris. Eventually we got a ride to the other side of Bordeaux with a nice French lady. Kuddos to her for taking to big Dutch guys in her car alone.rating: 3/5, wait: 60 min 💬+🪧

The door was not open, but you can follow the wall/fence until it ends, climb down a small hill towards the autoroute and then jump the (second, smaller) fence. Sounds more complicated than it ended up being, the fence is even a little bent down and there's trees to help. Lots of local cars but I still found people going through Lille to Mons within 15 minutes. Would definitely recommend this spot to get out of Paris to the North.rating: 4/5, wait: 15 min 💬, ride: 246 km ↗

Free toilets (thank you, France) and a busy gas station with lots of traffic to Lille and Paris. Look out for cars with the numbers 75 for Paris proper or 91/92/93/94/95 for the suburbs. Found a ride to St-Denis in less than half an hour. Generally really helpful and friendly folks there.rating: 5/5, wait: 25 min 💬, ride: 219 km ↙

Onramp spot with a bit of space for cars to stop. Pretty good traffic, but semi-local. Found a ride to Namur after 20 minutes with a sign to Mons/Charleroi/Paris.rating: 3/5, wait: 15 min 🪧, ride: 34 km ←

"Borrowed" some paper from McDonalds to make a sign to Paris and found a ride after adding some in-between stops (Mons, Charleroi) by standing at the zebra path near the roundabout. Lots of cars (mostly locals, but the quantity helps) going slowly to get into the busy roundabout. My ride didn't take me too far but every bit helps, right?The McDonalds also has free toilets which is always a plus.

We spent the night at this gas station camping at the end of the trucker field. Quite a nice place to camp, noone bothered us. Next morning we started hitching at the petrol station at 8 am. The people here were super friendly. It's a great station to get on the other side of Paris without entering the city. We did this quite well as we found two nice people who took us al the way to Alicante.rating: 5/5, wait: 40 min 💬+🪧

We arrived here well after dark. Although it's difficult to hitch in de dark, we found a car after 50 minutes just before we were planning to give up for the night. She brought us all the way to Paris. Great gal she's gonna be a famous singer with that voice soon.rating: 4/5, wait: 50 min 💬+🪧

We got dropped here on the way to Paris. Not a great spot as the sun was setting. It's difficult for people to stop but eventually someone did bring us to the nearest gas station. Shout-out to these punksrating: 3/5, wait: 60 min 💬+🪧
